Army in the Market to Mutilate 3,600 Goats

The U.S. Army’s plans to use animals in trauma training are enough to make a goat faint. The army is in the market to buy up to 3,600 goats to torment and kill in exercises like those seen in this shocking undercover video, which PETA released last month. The video, sent to us by a brave whistleblower, shows instructors as they saw off live goats’ limbs with tree trimmers and crudely cut open the animals’ abdomens and yank out their organs. Goats moan loudly and kick during the procedures.

Goats are intelligent, inquisitive, social animals who can quickly learn to open latches on farm gates and let themselves out. Moms and kids share a strong bond and have been known to recognize each other even if they have been separated for years.

The Army plans to mutilate thousands of goats even though high-tech human simulators are readily available and offer soldiers superior training in how to treat wounds in the field.

HOW COULD ANY OF YOU PEOPLE TORTURE AN INNOCENT ANIMAL AND WATCH IT SUFFER THROUGH SUCH HORRIFIC PAIN. I WILL NOT SUPPORT THE US ARMY IF THIS IS WHAT TYPE OF CRUELTY THEY PUT ONTO ANIMALS. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING AND WRONG. PUT YOURSELVES IN THEIR POSITION. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU ALL TRY.

If this is real. (I couldn’t watch video!!) I am beyond disappointment in our army & this nation. Have we become like third world countries?? Barbarians? This is horrific & I’m at a loss for words!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Though to my anger towards this; I can’t even express my opinion and why one should NEVER even consider doing this. NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING is worth doing this. I very seldom write complaints like this but I had to do something because this is just plain stupidity ( excuse my term) but thats what it is…..

I am disgusted that you would do such a thing! What purpuse could this serve? OMG when will people finally understand that animals fell pain too. You wouldnt cut up children like this. Please stop this torture now! There are plenty of other ways to conduct what you are trying without using live animals.

And the US is supposed to be the most “humane” country, but yet we torture and maim and kill defenseless animals? How does that teach ANYONE ANYTHING about how to treat people?! Actions like this, and by OUR OWN GOVERNMENT, are disgraceful. I’m so ashamed right now. We see our soldiers constantly caught up in scandals overseas; raping women, urinating on dead bodies. I guess they learn to behave that way from the Army.

WTH???? This is the most disgusting, horrific thing I have seen in a long time!!!! What is wrong with our military???? We are tax payers and we are paying for the military to KILL and MUTILATE innocent animals!!!!! SHAME on YOU US Armed Forces!!!! Test your SICK practices on each other… NOT on innocent, defenseless animals!! You make me ILL!!!!!!

This is really shocking, horrible, cruel! I cannot believe that people are able to do things like that. who are you thinking that you’ve got the right to make animals suffer like that? It is a big crime and I ask you to stop that. you don’t have the right to do this, to make animals suffer like that! Stop it!

PLEASE DON’T USE GOATS FOR YOUR TRAINING!! USE THE MODERN SIMULATORS. IF THE GOVERNMENT WON’T BUY THE SIMULATORS FOR YOU TELL PETA OR ANY ANIMAL GROUP AND WE WILL START A CAMPAIGN TO GET THEM FOR YOU. pLEASE, PLEASE DON’T USE THE GOATS. I WILL PRAY THAT YOU MAKE THE HUMANE AND SANE DECISION. IT MAKES ME ILL TO THINK OF THE PAIN THESE ANIMALS WILL GO THROUGH!! AND TO RUB SALT INTO THE WOUND IT IS TOTALLY NOT NECESSARY. I AM BEGGING YOU TO NOT USE ANIMALS ANY MORE!!! PLEASE!!!! LET US KNOW AND WE WILL HELP YOU GET THE SIMULATORS IF IT’S A PROBLEM!!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!!!!

I am disgusted more and more by my government’s total and complete lack of compassion for animals. My tax dollars are to be spent on mutilating these animals and I WANT IT STOPPED IMMEDIATELY. Why in the HELL is the Army allowed to do this???? Who is in charge of this and what is their excuse for this horrid act???? DO NOT TELL ME TRAINING. I know about training and this is not training this is pure animal abuse. I am sickened by this and something has to be done to stop it. The more I see of the USA government the more I am disgusted by it. STOP THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The most repulsive act ever from Military, how is this helping training, what is this meant to achieve, hurting and torturing beautiful animals, pathetic I say and disrespectful to innocent, beautiful animals, makes me angry and repulsed and disgusted.

Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights? Read more.
